Ye Ningxiang just heard the punishment of kneeling for three days and thought that it was not a big deal, just kneeling at the gate of the palace, there was no one around, and she could sit on her legs and rest for a while. However, when she actually went to kneel, she realized how naïve she was.

Originally, the so-called punishment kneeling was not only about kneeling on the ground with your legs, but also lifting a basin full of water above your head with both hands, and maintaining this position all the time. If the tortured grandmother finds that she is lazy, she will be flogged and served.

Even if a person like Ye Ningxiang who has practiced martial arts kneels for a long time in such a posture, he is already exhausted, and his hands are trembling, not to mention those weak women who have no power to restrain the chicken. Ye Ningxiang couldn't help but express deep sympathy for the palace people who had been punished by this punishment.

However, as soon as she thought of Wang Liyue, Ye Ningxiang, who was already exhausted, suddenly came to her senses. That Wang Liyue was hit by the poison that Ye Ningxiang personally concocted, and the poison itself would not cause much harm to the body, but it could really make people suffer from it. On the first day, Wang Liyue would only feel itchy feet, on the second day, her feet would be so red and swollen that she would not even be able to wear her shoes, on the third day, her feet would grow many pustules and a lot of thick water, and on the fourth day, Wang Liyue would feel that her feet were in severe pain and she should not be able to walk normally. If Ye Ningxiang's estimation is good, Wang Liyue's feet will improve on the fifth day, but she will also be limping when she walks.

Thinking of this, Ye Ningxiang almost laughed, but at this time, she found a life-saving straw, King Mu Jingyuan. This Mu Jingyuan was very good friends with her younger brother Su Xiaowu when she was young, and on Xiaowu's tenth birthday, Mu Jingyuan also participated in his birthday banquet as a righteous brother, so Ye Ningxiang had a deep impression of Mu Jingyuan. In the past seven years, Mu Jingyuan has only grown a lot taller, and his appearance has not changed much, so Ye Ningxiang recognized Mu Jingyuan at a glance when he was far away from him.

Seeing Mu Jingyuan walking in the direction where he was, Ye Ningxiang felt that he couldn't just let him slip away from him. Ye Ningxiang remembered that Mu Jingyuan often took the opportunity to please her cousin Lin Yue when she was a child, even if she grew up, she should be a good man who knows how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, so Ye Ningxiang was ready to use the stupidest method - pretending to pass out to win Mu Jingyuan's sympathy.

When Mu Jingyuan was still more than ten meters away, Ye Ningxiang seized the opportunity, and in an instant, the whole person lost support, and let her body fall heavily to the ground, and the basin in her hand fell to the ground with a force that was invisible to outsiders, making a loud bang, and the water in the basin splashed everywhere, and even splashed on Mu Jingyuan's body.

As he expected, this Mu Jingyuan not only did not blame her, but took her in his arms and asked her with concern how she was and if she was okay.

Ye Ningxiang cautiously opened one eye slit, and saw Mu Jingyuan looking very anxious, and then Mama Cui came out of Zhongxiu Palace in a panic.

"The slave maid Cui clan sees His Royal Highness King Xin, all the palace people under the slave maid are ignorant and block the way of His Royal Highness King Xin, and please punish His Royal Highness King Xin!"

"Mama Cui, how can you bear to let such a weak woman kneel at the gate of the palace with a basin full of water in her hands?

"Your Royal Highness King Xin, you have misunderstood, this little girl has a bad heart, and when she first entered the palace gate, she played some harmful tricks, and Queen Liyue, the nephew of Wang Guifei who was murdered by her, is still lying on the bed with itchy feet that she can't even walk. In order to show that Ye Ningxiang murdered this person, Cui Mama deliberately mentioned the relationship between Wang Liyue and Wang Guifei.

But what Mama Cui didn't know was that this Mu Jingyuan hated two people in the palace, one was his third brother Mu Xize who had just been released from the prison three months ago because of the amnesty of the world, and the other was Wang Guifei, who relied on the power of her mother's family and the power to be in charge of the harem.

When Mu Jingyuan heard that this matter was also related to the Wang family, he immediately became angry, picked up Ye Ningxiang and rushed into Zhongxiu Palace, and then personally put Ye Ningxiang on the bed, and ordered the eunuch to bring a eunuch to come over and take a look. And he himself is very persistent, and he must make sure that Ye Ningxiang is okay before leaving.

Ye Ningxiang muttered to herself in her heart: I didn't expect this Mu Jingyuan to be a strong seed, a personality who runs to the black one by one when he sees one thing. What should I do if the imperial doctor came here for a while, except for a little sore arm, there was nothing wrong with me, wouldn't it be revealing my stuffing if I went on like this.

No, it can't go on like this, so Ye Ningxiang pretended to be very weak and opened her eyes, then pretended to be very puzzled to look at the current situation she was in, and then looked at Mu Jingyuan suspiciously.

"Ye Ningxiang, His Royal Highness King Xin is here, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to say goodbye!" Cui Mama said coldly.

Ye Ningxiang pretended to be flattered, and moved her body to kowtow to say goodbye, but was stopped by Mu Jingyuan stretching out her arm, "You are so weak that you look like this, what can you ask for, I think it is impossible for you to harm people with such a soft appearance." As he spoke, Mu Jingyuan glanced at Mama Cui viciously, and Mama Cui was a little weak and turned her eyes away.

"His Royal Highness the King of Faith is willing to believe in Ning Xiang, and Ning Xiang is famous even if he dies today. Ye Ningxiang's words were so touching that she realistically squeezed out a few tear drops, which made Mu Jingyuan's already overflowing sympathy even more uncontrollable.

"Mama Cui," Mu Jingyuan said to Mama Cui without a good face, "Don't make such a cruel punishment as kneeling in the future, I leave the palace again, do you hear clearly?"

"Yes. Cui Mama replied nervously.

After that, the imperial doctor came to check Ye Ningxiang's pulse, and he didn't find anything wrong, but seeing Mu Jingyuan's serious face, he said casually: "Ye Gong people are weak, and they have been overworked recently, and there are some signs of liver qi stagnation. ”

After that, Ye Ningxiang was forcibly arranged to lie on the bed for three days, and then prepared the emperor's birthday banquet with Su Qingqing and other palace people. Originally, this kind of work did not need to be done by a first-class palace person like Su Qingqing, but the foot-washing turmoil also made Su Qingqing offend Mama Cui, and Mama Cui was undoubtedly deliberately embarrassed by Su Qingqing.

Unexpectedly, Su Qingqing was happy to be busy for the emperor's birthday banquet, and when there were only two people, Ye Ningxiang and Su Qingqing, Su Qingqing whispered to Ye Ningxiang the reason, it turned out to be for her dream lover, and this dream lover was Ye Ningxiang's enemy and her husband Mu Xize in her previous life.

Su Qingqing smiled and said: "Do you know, the three princes will also participate in this birthday banquet, if I work hard now, maybe I can be sent to the birthday banquet site, and I can see this legendary first beautiful man with my own eyes." ”

Speaking of this, Su Qingqing's face showed a sad face, "Originally, it should have been a great achievement to report the rebellion of his father-in-law's family, but I don't know what happened in the middle, and he will be charged with killing the king, and he will be in the prison of Dali Temple for seven years." ”

At this point, Su Qingqing's face showed admiration, "You say it's also magical, killing the monarch should be a capital crime, but he can always survive, and he can still participate in the emperor's birthday banquet like other princes without a title." What's even more powerful is that he has not been involved in government politics for seven years, and there are still many supporters in the DPRK. ”

Su Qingqing's appearance was like Su Huang when she was not married, and she regarded Mu Xize as a god-like existence, but when she thought of the lives of the thirty-seven men of the Su family and the daughters of the Su family whose life and death were uncertain, Ye Ningxiang's heart hurt like a knife, and she wanted to kill Mu Xize immediately.

Su Qingqing saw that Ye Ningxiang's eyes were solemn, and she seemed to have murderous intent, so she asked: "Sister Ningxiang doesn't want to accuse me of talking about the three princes in private!" Su Qingqing said this, and the people were obviously uneasy, because after the emperor deposed Mu Xize, he had issued a holy decree strictly prohibiting people in the palace from talking about the three princes and everything about the three princes, and those who violated it should be beheaded.

Ye Ningxiang came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Qingqing, where do you want to go, how can I tell you, I am thinking that these three princes may not be as beautiful as you think in your heart, I am afraid that you will be disappointed when you see him." ”

However, the final result was not as Su Qingqing wished, and Mama Cui deliberately assigned Su Qingqing and Ye Ningxiang to the Imperial Catering Division together, that is, to help in the back kitchen, so that they would not have any chance to meet with dignitaries and royal relatives, which completely eliminated Su Qingqing's desire to see a peerless beautiful man.
